Ceramic Heater Safety
Not sure where I should post this; please feel free to move it? I did a forum search for the subject, but couldn't find it.
Basically, I'm looking for a supplemental space heater that's "safe" to use in a trailer. By "safe" I mean it has a tipover switch, an overheat switch and if your dog wags his fluffy tail against it, it might not ignite.
Do "ceramic" heaters fit the bill?

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
I would keep an eye on the BBC website for news of the injured/dead. See https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-50724944 for the current list.
They do daily updates. Wishing Sue the best.
Oh there she is, Sue Bray checked in "6 hours ago in Wellington New zealand" so nowhere near the volcano. <3

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Do any of you rember Sue Bray from the Good Sam club. She was instrumental in me being named the first Good Sam RVer of the year and presented me with the award on stage at the Rally in Albuquerque. She had just arrived in New Zealand when the Volcano exploded. Haven't heard from her since.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Hello all
Hope you hear from Susan Bray soon!
The semester is officially over here, but we're still catching up on grading, will file grades next week. Today we shoveled out, er, cleaned (yeah that's it) the professor's office to make sure he hadn't lost any student work. I hate when that happens.
As soon as we're done, and right after Christmas I'm taking Amroth and the rig down to Scottsdale for a couple days just to put my feet up, eat steak, drink hot chocolate and take walks. Can't wait.
Be safe and healthy, y'all!

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
I'll see you there! Looking forward to it. Sgt. Joe, it's not that far! You just point east, put your foot down, and stop when you get tired. Sooner than you expect, you're there.

Tree sap? Have you tried Goo Gone? A little soak, a little scrub? Ought to work. So does lighter fluid, but wear gloves!

Well lookie there, it's my DOTLs! All of those have transferred to the Rainbow Division, but their cousins Amroth and Nimrodel are ready to Defend here! (And no doubt Erkenbrand is still protesting, "I'm not a girl!")

RE: Today is Constiution Day
I love reading the Constitution, and always read it on Constitution Day, for sure. It used to be a tradition at one of my high schools to read it out loud on that day.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Hello everybody. Looking forward to seeing some of you in Sevierville! How many will there be?
It's finally "cooler" here in Vegas (under 100 most of the time). Maybe Fall will happen soon. We'll have about 2 weeks of between 90 and 65 and then WHAM it'll be winter here.
I can't wait to leave town. 5 dance classes, 4 anthropology lectures and 1 ball to go.....

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Glad to hear Richard is doing better! One day at a time and by Fall I hope he'll be feeling fine.
Our furbabies can't wait for real Fall. It was over 80 at dawn this AM, is 102 now and still rising. We do our morning walks before dawn until well into Fall, which doesn't really happen here until about Oct. 1. Hope everyone is going to enjoy milder weather soon - I think Fall is the best season ever.
And if you live in Florida I really hope you're battened down!

RE: Looking for dog breed the travels well while Rving
Don't worry about size or breed! Go down to the shelter and tell them you want a cuddle buddy who likes car rides and walks (which pretty much defines RVing if you're a dog).
Let us know what you get - all agog here.

Hello everybody! Wishing Richard the best tomorrow! And those of you moving/cleaning/decluttering - it's always a heartbreaking/interesting/exhausting adventure. Hugs to all of you.
Happy National Dog Day!

RE: AARRGHH! Jesse may have anaplasmosis-UPDATE #2D
I'm so sorry y'all are having pooch concerns, but I'm lovin' this thread because I'm learning a lot.
Crowe: I have hypersensitive skin too and don't have a problem with Sawyer's. I recommend you get a bottle and spray one sock, wear it around for a day and see what happens. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS, they do make a difference. If you don't react, spray a 2nd sock and try both at once. If still no reaction, do some pants. Then add a shirt....
If you do react, you can still put the Sawyers on your outer layers such as long sleeved shirts, pants, jackets. Or sell it to a friend. It's great stuff.

RE: Rand McNally RVND 5525 LM Screen Recalibration
Holding the lower left corner of the screen while starting did .... something. Suddenly Accept took a click and I was able to get to the recalibration screen. Whew! So thanks MDKMDK, you helped!

RE: Wendy's and the Collies
I am grateful for the EZPass toll transponders because toll booths always had my dogs wondering why the cheapskates didn't give treats.....LOL!!
I did meet one MA tollbooth keeper who offered a treat!
My dogs recognize both the local Carl's Jr. (that's Hardee's to y'all east and south) and Camping World. Lots of happy barks as soon as we hit the driveway. Both give treats!
CW is also air-conditioned and dog-friendly, very important here in the Southwest.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
So glad Suzie is doing better! My Nimrodel hit a patch of slick mud at high speed this morning and did the splits! Heart in mouth, I tell you, but apparently she's ok. Those strains and sprains are a real .... challenge.

Rand McNally RVND 5525 LM Screen Recalibration
(I did search the forum for this topic, I promise)
So my screen BADLY needs recalibrating - so badly that I can't get "Accept" the agreement to work. When I tap on "Accept" it moves the Up arrow on the right of the screen! This is NOT useful.
Obviously, I can't get into settings by tapping on the screen. Anywhere.
Just pressing Reset merely restarts the GPS, which goes back to the Accept screen. Removing and replacing the batteries didn't work either (hey, I'm an old S/A, what do you expect?).
I know some models could be reset and go straight to the Recalibrate screen, but I can't find any info on how to do it with the 5525 - which has no Home button.
Any ideas? I sent a message to Rand McNally Tech Support, but no response yet, and I'm leaving town on Tuesday....
